Im more impressed when i see an old lady put a pound in a cancer tin tbh
It does us all good to be charitable.
I can't fault anyone just because they have loads of money, anymore than I could if they had less.

when you cant pay bills, buy anything nice for yourself, get public transport and canbt heat your home

surely you can see a difference there?

Being charitable should be a given when all of the above are not an issue

not a virtue

Of course there is a difference between being skint or having money, but if someone that has money gives to charity then I can't fault them.
I don't hold with all this poor people vote labour and toffs vote Tory either.
Surely you vote for the policies or what you think is right at the time.

Wait a minute. Are you talking about the same guy who was homeless a few years ago, but wrote a song to benefit a place for *****s to get help? Surely the homeless shouldn't help people? Oops, now he's a millionaire, he must automatically change all his points of view to reflect the elite. Hmm...

Lol

Ed Sheeran has never been "homeless" - he admitted that once for a very short time he did not have a place he called home but that this has been taken out of context but that to call him homeless was wrong and a bit insulting to those who really are. He "chose" to be like that but always had a home to go to.

Unless you have evidence to the contrary?

I agree with this. There are plenty of people who are well off through honest means and they tend to be the most charitable.

I think what LT is trying to suggest is, if we had a Corbyn government, nobody would be wealthy. That the wealthy would have to give back their wealth to the needy and live more humble lives. Of course this is ridiculous but this is the sort of thing Right wing propaganda has been spewing since Corbyn became a 'thing'.

More like a fad! And we all know how lasting fads are. Blink and they’re gone.
